On one of the buildings it says DC "making history". The last time DC made history was Blue Superman. Now Static is getting the same. Anyroad, here's the pitch.
Written by SCOTT McDANIEL and JOHN ROZUM; Art and cover by SCOTT McDANIEL and JONATHAN GLAPION and LeBEAU UNDERWOOD
The brilliant, slightly awkward high school student Virgil Hawkins transforms into the cocky electromagnetic hero Static!
A mysterious tragedy forces the Hawkins family to relocate from Dakota to New York City! Virgil embarks upon new adventures in a new high school and a new internship at S.T.A.R. Labs!
As Static, he dons a new uniform and establishes a new secret headquarters! But is he ready to take on the new villains who lurk in New York City's underworld?

I'll be getting this book only and I mean only because Static is my fav character of all time. Also sadly this is the only DC title I'll be getting. If it's cancelled, it'll be the last DC book I'll ever buy.
The Great One Returns and with a terrible costume too!

One of the big things that is different in the new series, as you mentioned, is that Static is no longer in Dakota. Why did you pick New York City?
Rozum: "I think it was that New York City has been a city, in DC's history, that hasn't really been a strong central city where books take place in -- versus in Marvel where everything takes place in New York City. I think everybody who works at DC lives there and it's a city people are familiar with whether they live there or not, so it's an interesting idea. I was sad, as it would have been an easy way to bring in the other Milestone characters having it set in Dakota. It is more challenging, but not impossible -- there's another Milestone character in the first issue, in fact."
McDaniel: And old longtime readers should not be offended by anything that we've done to his continuity or story or history.
Don't be offended?!
That's like when your little brother or sister comes up to you and says "don't be mad", because they know you will be mad because they really messed up!
